StratSim Assignment 2
The objective of this assignment is to define the current competitive position of your firm and identify the key strategic actions necessary for the firm to achieve a sustainable competitive advantage. The presentation and written assignment should build on the team’s previous competitor and strategy analysis by accomplishing the following: • Identify the current strategy of your firm and classify your firm’s resources and capabilities relative to your competitors (i.e., what is your firm’s current position on the competitive landscape). • Identify how successful your firm has been over the course of the simulation relative to other firms in the industry along key results such as market share, overall sales, return to shareholders, ROS (Return on Sales), ROA (Return on Assets), etc. Evaluate the acceptability of these results. • Recommend a set of strategic actions for your firm to achieve sustainable competitive advantage and project the results expected from these actions in terms of such key measures as market share, sales, ROA, ROS, etc. over the next 5 years. • Identify the necessary strategic steps your firm will have to take in implementing your recommendations and identify anticipated obstacles or problems (i.e., what resources and capabilities does the firm need to develop or acquire, and what are the potential risks and uncertainties associated with your recommendations).
The written portion of this assignment should be between 20-25 pages, Times New Roman, 12 point font, double-spaced, 1-inch margins, and link the group’s competitor and strategic analysis completed earlier in the semester with a discussion of the above issues. It should include a cover page, a computer generated Table of Contents, an Executive Summary, and Appendices, which should be used to present data and analysis to support your conclusions and recommendations. None of these will be counted in the 20-25 pages. Tables and charts can be included in the Appendices and should be used whenever possible to summarize information. The report should be of the same quality that you would provide to the management of a business that you are dealing with directly. It should read as if one person wrote the entire document rather than a compilation of contributions from team members.
The presentation portion of this assignment is the vehicle through which each team will demonstrate the quality of its analysis, critical thinking, and strategic insights. Successful presentations will require:
• A professional presentation. An evaluation of content is strongly influenced by how well it is presented. • A rigorous analysis of the information. • The ability to identify and give shape to the conceptual issues. • Distilling from the information and conceptual issues what is relevant and important. • Creating specific recommendations for action. • Framing the recommended actions in terms of the criteria by which it was made. • Identifying the arguments for and against the recommended and the necessary steps the firm will have to make to achieve the desired results.
There is no right format for such a presentation. Part of your team’s task is to find a conceptual framework that allows the reviewers to share in your thought processes and simultaneously test your ideas. Each team will have 20 minutes to present. This time limit will be strictly enforced to allow time for some discussion after each presentation. Failure to complete the presentation in the allotted time will have a negative impact on your team’s presentation grade. Each team should be ready to present at their specified time to minimize the transition time between presentations. Power Point slides are an acceptable means of conveying information during the presentation. The goal is to make the logic and flow of your arguments visually apparent. This means clear, credible, and convincing. Avoid slides that present spreadsheets that are full of small, unreadable numbers. Represent this type of information visually (i.e. graphs, pie charts, etc.) whenever possible.
